DIY Twig Vase

This DIY twig vase is part of a sponsored post for Bloomsy Box.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I love fresh flowers!  The surprise of the delivery, the bright colors, the fresh scent: it all just makes me smile.  These beautiful flowers from BloomsyBox are bringing smiles this week and I made a simple DIY twig vase that houses them beautifully!

This month, I received a bouquet of dianthus mixed with bright greenery that really made the flowers pop!

The bold pink flowers with their delicate fringed leaves are so beautiful for summer!

I knew they’d look amazing in a DIY twig vase and I had the perfect idea in mind.  Last weekend, I had the chance to listen to Matthew Mead share some of his styling tips and he had a gorgeous vase in his display.  I knew it wouldn’t be hard to make a DIY version!

I gathered some twigs and sticks at our local park …

… and shaped them around a glass vase.  Using hot glue, I started randomly attaching pieces together, placing some straight up and down and laying some at angles.  I kept adding more twigs until the vase was stable enough to stand on its own and I was happy with the way it looked.

I didn’t want the flowers to be obscured by the glass vase so I removed it once the vase shape was set and placed a small clear cup inside the twig vase.  It’s much less noticeable but still provides a water reservoir for the flowers.

I arranged the BloomsyBox bouquet in the twig vase …

This twig vase is such a simple project and will look gorgeous every month with a new bouquet of BloomsyBox flowers!

    This is really pretty and inspiring. I am going to try and make one for our next garden club meeting. Or maybe it could be a project for our ladies to make? Thanks so much.

    Beautiful! I love the contrasting textures. This really looks “do-able”. Also, a great idea to use as a craft for my 7 year old and me.

    Thanks,
    Paige

    when you used a glue gun to attach to the vase did it get stuck to the vase – little unclear how you pulled out the vase. Or did you just attach the twigs together with glue and used the vase as a base?
